These tombstone inscriptions and church records were collected by various individuals throughout the 1940-50's as part of a county-wide genealogy project. Those records are now housed in the Cemeteries collection of The Thomas Balch (Genealogical) Library of Leesburg, VA.

Most of these cemeteries are public, and many are still actively open. Those that are designated private family cemeteries are generally on private lands and may require landowner permission to visit.
